@纳兰南汐螃蟹, this ancient seafood delicacy dates back to the ancient civilization period. Crab has been an integral part of human food culture since ancient times, and in modern times, it has become the first choice for many gourmets and seafood lovers. The history of human consumption of crabs dates back to the ancient civilization period around 6000 BC. At that time, humans had begun to catch and eat crabs, and in ancient civilizations, crabs were regarded as a high-protein, low-fat food, which became a delicacy chased by the nobles at that time. Over time, crab has become an important ingredient around the world.
In Chinese food culture, crabs also occupy a pivotal position. Since ancient times, Chinese has a long history of eating crabs. According to historical records, as early as the Tang Dynasty, crab eating began to be popular in the Jiangnan area. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, crab eating became a symbol of fashion and luxury. In China, there are many food cultures related to crabs. For example, there are special tools such as "Eight Pieces of Crabs", as well as a series of poems, paintings and literature related to crabs. In addition, crab is also one of the traditional foods during the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival, symbolizing reunion and happiness.
In China, there are many kinds of crabs that are loved by people. The most famous of these is the pike crab. Its meat is tender and delicious, and it is known as the "king of crabs". However, crab prices are generally lower this year than in previous years, for a number of reasons. The main reason is that this summer's high temperature has led to slow crab growth, reduced production, and natural price increases; At the same time, affected by the previous epidemic, the catering industry has been greatly affected, and the demand for crabs has also decreased; In addition, there are also small days of nuclear sewage to do wrong, and the combined effect of these factors has led to lower crab prices this year than in previous years.
It is also important to note that although the price of crabs has decreased, this does not mean that their quality has also decreased. When shopping for crabs, you still need to pay attention to quality and freshness. Generally speaking, high-quality pike crab shells are clean and tidy, the meat is full and delicious, and the taste is delicate and fragrant. If you buy dead crab or poor quality crab, it will not only taste bad, but also affect your health. My sister-in-law also said that although pike crabs are cheap this year, don't eat more, remember 3 to 3 when choosing!
"3 wants"
1: Choose live pike crabs. Live pike crabs are ideal for selection, with their full bodies, sound limbs and bright colors. If possible, try gently squeezing the pincers of the pike crabs, and if they react quickly, they are alive.
2: Choose a pike crab with a clean belly. The texture of the belly is clear, there are no broken or discolored pike crabs, which are generally considered fresh.
3: Pay attention to the weight of the pike crab. Weight is an important indicator of the freshness of a pike crab. Usually, fresh pike crabs weigh heavier, have full meat quality, and taste better.
"3 Don't"
1: Don't choose dead crabs. Dead crabs may not be fresh, and crabs are cold, and stale crabs are prone to food poisoning when eaten.
2: Do not have needle holes in the abdomen. Many unscrupulous traders will inject water into the body of the crab to gain weight. This water-injected crab is usually thin, and after the water is injected, the survival time of the crab is shorter.
3: Don't be lightweight. Light-weight crabs are usually leaner, and less meat naturally weighs less. Whether it is alive or not, a lightweight crab cannot be wanted.
